Time:  10:00 AM

Location: 4th Floor (Workshop space) at 300 Ouellette Avenue (School of Computer Science Advanced Computing Hub)

 

Abstract: 
Reinforcement learning (RL) is the training of machine learning models to make a sequence of decisions. The agent learns to achieve a goal in an uncertain, potentially complex environment. In reinforcement learning, an artificial intelligence faces a game-like situation. The computer employs trial and error to come up with a solution to the problem.  This workshop will introduce the main concepts of Reinforcement Learning (RL) with examples.
 
Workshop Outline:
             What is the difference between Reinforcement Learning and other machine learning methods?
•             Components of RL
•             RL learning process
•             Example of RL
•             Q&A
 
Prerequisites:
N/A
